sure, if you like being wrong.

Kessel would get that today from 99% of the teams in the league.

how am I wrong, 8 mill a year for 7 more years, not a chance.

The Leafs thread is brutal - I made the mistake of wandering in there the other day to get a feel for what they wanted for Kessel.

some times it gets a little whacked in there.

few guys who think everything they say is 100% right

I suppose you could say that about every thread with more than 10 posters.

For those of us that aren't big fans of bringing Kessel in, how does this one work? Hodgson and a first for Kessel. I'm still leaning towards buying out Hodgson instead and using the money elsewhere.

Not many have the room or balls to take that on. We do. But I hope they don't . If it does happen. I would be worried 3 yrs from now on who too dump. 30 goal scorers are tough to come by. Rather chance on us having one in the farm.

If we can get him without giving up the 2015 1st, Reinhart or Ristolainen I would entertain the idea.



And no, I didn't forget lioneater

That's the thing - I don't consider Hodgson a positive in the deal. He just makes the contract easier to swallow instead of paying Hodgson 800k a year for the next 8 years not to play here.

He'd get decent ice time in toronto, maybe it gives him the chance to regain his offensive touch.

His shooting percentage is abnormally low this year even for him

I didn't say he wouldn't, I said the contract is horrible. The Sabres don't need that as of now.

Well we do have that Bell tv contract so southern Ontario get about 75% of Sabres games.

I think Columbus could be a fit. They've got a high pick this year thanks to injuries and some assets in the minors.

i'd just like to apologize in advance to Sabres fans on here for our awful team that will play like poop the entire game, and likely give you all heart attacks with the thought of you guys possibly getting 2 points

its almost guaranteed you guys will get at least a point tonight.
So sorry in advance.

We exhausted the scenarios a few days ago. 70-40 against it

Yes 70-40 is correct.
